A Dogs Delight
03 Tuesday May 2016
Friday 29th April – Monday 2nd May – Bridport, Dorset
This was our first trip in 2016 after a layoff of a few months . I had put Roxie on SORN over the winter season as it did seem we were not going to get away at Christmas. I also managed to get a couple of jobs done on her but not as much as I would have liked. This trip has shown up a tap leak, window leak and a possibly a bulging door. Continue reading

The Cornish Trip Sunday 25th Oct – Friday 30th Oct
Sunday 25th Oct
Picked up Roxy at the farm and drove down to Waitrose in Salisbury to get fuel and LPG for the first time. An experience without any drama but I did ask for advice from the service crew as I really did not want things to go wrong. Not sure why I bothered really as it is very straight forward.
New Tv and Satellite Retune at Vanbitz
22 Thursday Oct 2015
Thursday 22 Oct 2015 – Vanbitz Taunton
We have never had a TV fitted in a van before let alone a satellite system on the roof. Neither are we great watches of a tv when we are away preferring to listen to the radio. However Roxie had both so we were both rather intrigued with it all. On our first visit and on pickup day the tv appeared to be working fine. However being both very excited at our new purchase neither Kaz nor I took a great deal of interest in the quality or the workings of a tv, a tv is a tv isn’t it? Continue reading

Just a short drive in and out of Salisbury this morning for Roxie and I to Adams Moray ( www.adamsmorey-salisbury.com ) This is the MOT station for HGV’s and is located on Churchfields Industrial Estate, just around the corner from where I work at Edwards Ford. Continue reading

Tuesday 13th October 2015 – Gas It
We visited the end of the year Motor Home Show at Shepton Mallett predominately to see the accessories on offer and to have a nose around. This all proved very successful which resulted us in deciding to purchase the “Gas It” system for the van. Continue reading
Furzehill Farm Ibsley CL 727
28 Monday Sep 2015
Friday 25th Sept Ibsley in Roxie 2nd CL
Turned off the key at 18.30 in a quiet peaceful part of the New Forest for the weekend.
Furzehill Farm CL run by Richard Loader is a brilliant site, an ideal place to chill and recharge the batteries. It had only been about a 30 minute drive, about 15 mile, from Salisbury on a sunny evening. Continue reading
House Move to Droitwich Spa

21 – 23 August 2015 House Move Droitwich Spa CL
Friday afternoon saw me drive Roxie up to Droitwich Spa with the boys on the seats beside me. A quick stop on the way up for a dog break after about an hour. Have decided that stopping after an hour or so beneficial for all, even though Roxie is such an easy vehicle to drive.
Our First Certified Location (CL)
18 Tuesday Aug 2015
Posted in Horsham, West Sussex
14 – 16 August 2015 Our first CL – Goffsland Farm, Horsham, West Sussex (1697)
Leaving home about 4pm we made good time even though it mainly drizzled all the way and the traffic was quite busy on the M27 with Friday night work commuters and other summer holiday makers. Stopped off at Tesco’s Havant for fuel and a Costa coffee and chocolate to contain my withdrawal symptoms.
